Can Culleretes

La Rambla & Barri Gòtic


Founded in 1786, Barcelona's oldest restaurant is still going strong, with visitors and locals alike flocking here for its rambling interior, old-fashioned tile-filled decor and enormous helpings of fuss-free traditional Catalan food. Dishes include fresh seafood, grilled meats, steaming stews and stuffed canelons (cannelloni), plus a fixed weekday lunch menu (€15 to €17).
